Quality Control and Inspection
Strict inspections from incoming materials to final production help prevent hidden defects before shipment. The principle is simple: solve all problems before shipment.
Step By Step
- 1
Drawing review
Specifications are confirmed before production begins. Most defects are decided here, not on the production line.
- 2
Pre-production sample inspection
Finish, dimensions and construction are checked before mass materials are produced.
- 3
Incoming material inspection
Defective materials are caught before they are built into a product, which avoids rework and a delayed property opening.
- 4
In-process inspection
Inspecting during production keeps defective products from being hidden and packed into cartons.
- 5
Final inspection
Completed products are verified against the specification before packing.
- 6
Delivery coordination
Shipment schedules are aligned with project milestones.
What Changes For Your Project Team
- Defects resolved before shipment, not on site
- Documented inspection record per production run

What is included in quality control and inspection?
Strict inspections from incoming materials to final production help prevent hidden defects before shipment. The principle is simple: solve all problems before shipment.
Is this available on its own or only as part of a full package?
It can be run on its own, though most projects take it as part of the full sourcing programme so that the inspection and delivery stages connect to the same supplier relationship.
How early should we involve you?
At specification stage. The cheapest quality and cost decisions are made during drawing review, before anything is tooled or released to production.
How do you report progress?
Through the inspection record at each gate, with photographs and measurements taken at the factory as the production run proceeds.
What does it cost?
It is quoted per project, because the scope depends on the number of categories, the number of factories and the duration of the production programme.
